FOX NEWS: Johnny Carson had middle America magic!

[DougieZero]

what does that mean?

[burythehatchet]

1. that's what you call it when a iconic blue stater dies.

[Fenris]

2. He wudn't one of those librul Hollywood types.

:eyes:

[chascarrillo]

3. It means that FOX is using Carson's death to further their agenda

Really disgusting if you think about it.

[CatholicEdHead]

4. Yes

they are trying to make Carson just one of them. Just a sole figurehead for conservatives (not real conservatives), and not the coasts or any other "blue state".

[Bluebear]

5. He was from Nebraska, so FOX decides he is "theirs"

Very sad.

[lebkuchen]

6. Beats me

but I hope Middle America works some of its "magic" against Walmart, which is bankrupting the mom and pop shops on small-town Main Streets.

[Cleita]

7. Nothing. Like most of the RW hyperbole, these are meaningless

words and phrases.

[ashling]

8. I remember when he supported HHH for president

and appeared on the Democratic telethon that year.

he also attended my alma mater : Millsaps College, Jackson Mississippi

[justy329]

9. who is HHH?

Hubert Humprey?

[ashling]

10. Hubert Horatio Humphrey

[TahitiNut]

11. Fucking ghouls! Pimping their agenda and his corpse isn't even cold.

Detestible maggots!

[Kurovski]

12. Does it mean that he brought

People like George Carlin to the closed minds of Right-Wingers without huge smear campaigns being waged against the show?

Is that magical? :shrug:

[Liberal In Texas]

13. It doesn't mean anything - it alliterates, which TV writers are fond of

It's like *'s coronation speech. Empty rhetoric.

[Melynn]

14. If Carson was still on the air

If Johnny was doing the "Tonight Show" today he would be making jokes about Fox's beloved President Bush. I wonder if the mighty righty lackey network would still be loving Carson if that was the case.

[Shopaholic]

15. And he'd be ripping the right-wing Bible thumpers a new one--

Faux are really freaks of nature aren't they? Damn-is there no one they won't try to co-op to promote their "agenda"? Fuck 'em.
